Before any emergency lighting is installed, it must be properly designed. Our emergency lighting design service produces detailed, BS 5266-compliant lighting plans that show the exact position, type and coverage of every emergency fitting. We calculate lux levels, battery durations, escape route coverage and high-risk task area illumination. The design document can be used for building control approval, fire risk assessments and insurance compliance.

How It Works

Our Process

01

Building Survey

We measure your building, record escape routes, fire exits, occupancy levels, high-risk areas and any architectural constraints.

02

Lighting Calculations

Using professional lighting design software, we calculate the minimum lux levels, fitting positions and battery durations needed for full compliance.

03

Design Documentation

You receive a detailed emergency lighting design plan with fitting schedules, lux level maps, product specifications and compliance statements.

04

Approval & Installation

We can submit the design to building control or fire officers for approval and then carry out the installation to the exact design specification.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do I need a professional emergency lighting design?

Yes for new builds, major refurbishments and building control applications. A professional design ensures compliance, reduces fitting count and provides documentation for fire risk assessments.

Can you design emergency lighting for an existing building?

Absolutely. We survey your current layout, assess existing emergency lighting and produce a design that brings the building up to current BS 5266 standards.

How much does emergency lighting design cost?

Design fees depend on building size and complexity. Small offices start around £200. Large multi-floor buildings may be £500 to £1,000. We quote upfront after a brief discussion.
